A Contest for Supremacy: China, America and the Struggle for Mastery in Asia
Friedberg, Aaron
There may be no denying China's growing economic strength, but its impact on the global balance of power remains hotly contested. Political scientist Aaron L. Friedberg argues that our nation's leaders are failing to act expeditiously enough to counter China's growing strength. He explains how the United States and China define their goals and reveals the strategies each is now employing to achieve its ends. Friedberg demonstrates in this provocative book that the ultimate aim of Chinese policymakers is to "win without fighting," displacing the United States as the leading power in Asia while avoiding direct confrontation. The United States, on the other hand, sends misleading signals about our commitments and resolve, putting us at risk for a war that might otherwise have been avoided. A much-needed wake-up call to U.S. leaders and policymakers, A Contest for Supremacy is a compelling interpretation of a rivalry that will go far to determine the shape of the twenty-first century.

Since then, we have been working together to decrease our nuclear arms together. He explains how once the treaty takes effect, we each perform weapons inspection​s on each other's supplies which is a key part of the treaty. In the NEW Start Treaty, there was a lot of negotiatio​n of how these inspection​s would be handled between the two countries.

What difference does it make if a political leader has experienced war himself?
Does military experience among wartime leaders make them more or less
bellicose? Should voters care whether or not their political leaders have had
military experience?
